I’m from Oahu and currently live in NY. I miss Hawaiii and my favorite comfort foods there. Sure, there’s Hawaiian cuisine here but it don’t match up to Hawaii. Poke, katsu, miso butterfish, Japanese, filipino, Hawaiian, Chinese and Korean cuisine is just bomb!!! U can’t beat the freshness and big portions anywhere. Along with the weather and chill atmosphere. Hawaii cuisine is just bomb!!!! Your video informs me of new or old places to try when I come to visit. Kalihi has great eateries which is one of my favorite areas. Actually, any area of Oahu has ono grinds.
Aloha Risa from Oahu to New York! Awww I'm sure there's amazing pizza in New York but I agree. Hard to compete with Hawaii Food. And Kalihi has some of the best eateries. Just my opinion. Mahalo for watching 👍🤙
First time in Honolulu Hawaii as of 06/02/23 My Husband has tried 2/10 places here in Honolulu Hawaii right now you recommended. My husband absolutely loved the Fresh catch (it's a little spicy but good) and we also tried Kjs fried chicken and he said it was very flavorful. So far your recommendations are very very spot on and honestly you should be a tour guide here! We give your ratings a 10/10! Love love love!
Aloha Journey to Above!! Please tell your husband we said hi and I hope you enjoy all the local foods. fresh Catch in my experience can be a hit or miss (mostly good hits) but it's def different and KJs is always on the ball!:):) Please try all the other local foods and I'm okay with being a virtual guide but if you see us in person, would enjoy saying hi to you and your husband. Have a great rest of your trip on Oahu👍🤙😋
Just found your channel. Funny humor, good eats, great food descriptions. Had to pause one of your videos to get food because I was so hungry 😂. Fantastic job you two. Mahalo from Virginia ❤.
Aloha Dania from Oahu to Virginia!! Welcome to the Hawaiian Traveler Channel!!😋👍🤙. Haha and yes please eat up and enjoy. We appreciate your kind words. Have a great weekend👍
Major ono grinds! Can tell you are a Kaneohe guy LOL. Thank you for sharing your favorites! All are bomb and I agree. I now crave a Sweet Lady of Waiahole. 🤣😜
I think I watched your Kaneohe food video (2 years ago?) for inspiration! And yeah, Kaneohe all the way. We just don't have a Poke on Da Run that can keep me permantly here. Lol! Love the Sweet Lady of Waiahole! 😋 Thanks for watching!🤙
Aloha Jose!! We appreciate the military and all that you serve! Glad the island was able to serve you some ono grindz! Please come back and visit! Mahalo🤙👍
The face he makes when he unveils the poke nachos is priceless 😳 Don't sleep on the Hawaii 7-11. I used to always get my lunch "cold salad saimen" for 2.59 every day and it was so delicious. Also their breakfast burritos are epic.
That was my actual reaction and it helped that I was really hungry too. Lol. Gonna try the cold salad salmon and breakfast burrito from 7-11. Aloha Nadia🤙💯
Hello, thank you so much for all the information you provide. My husband and I went to KJ's local Gridz because of the video you made eating their crispy chicken and oh my God it was so delicious! It was the best food I have eating in Hawaii so far. We got 3 more days here, and I can't wait to try your some of your other recommendations. Thank you so much and keep up the good work.😊
Aloha Jacky! Mahalo for watching and please tell your husband we said hi!:) I'm glad that you tried KJ's because I grew up to eating their food 😋. Please enjoy your last couple days here and hope you eat lots of more food here. 🤙👍
Omg! This video made me sooo hungry! Visiting family in a few months & now I have a list of places I MUST go. Thank you for showing us tasty places mostly locals know about. 🤤 I’m always down to support local!
Thanks for all the tips. Just got back from Hawaii. Loved KJ’s Local Grindz. The portions were so big we ate them for lunch and dinner. And the 7-Elevens were awesome. I had a bunch of spam musubis. Wish our 7-elevens in CA had the same food.
Good morning sir , I have a question if I may . My husband and myself visited Waikiki a few years back and fell in love with the island . Do you have any suggestions for popular appetizers the locals love ? Better yet could you do a video showcasing popular appetizers please ... Mahalo 🤙
Aloha StormHaole!! I wouldn't know a place for popular appetizers because I try to avoid them.because I don't wanna be get full before the main dish. But any known bar that sells great food shall do🤙👍😋
Just came back from Hawaii!! Found this channel and I am watching every single of your videos! Love all the info I can get cuz planning to go back soon! 🤙🏼 Mahalo
Spam Misubu, breakfast, lunch anytime. . . . Poi, Ahi. So much more! My great grandfather was born and raised in Hawaii, on Oahu. He came over by ship in the early 1900's to San Francisco but was deported because Hawaii was not yet a state. He was Irish. Things change.
@@SeanKaleponi Mahalo Sean. We told the owners we are visiting because of your videos. They spoken nicely of you. We were in HNL for a month. Hopefully upon our return we can meet 🤙🏽 keep doing a great job on your channel and making Hawaii strong🤙🏽
First time in Hawaii, I'll be here for a week and I'm going to try all these places, L&L is the first place I went to, food was great but service was meh, got our orders wrong but what they gave us was delicious
Aloha Semper Smoke!! Yeah, I don't think some of the L and Ls are all about giving you your food and on to the next which is okay to me. Enjoy the local foods when you are here🤙👍😋
How are you so thin? Btw, the McDonalds hot apple pie looked like the ones we had when I was a kid. They were the bomb! The way they do them now sucks. Anyhoo, I’m digging your channel. Thanks!
Once hitting play it's hard to stop watching! Amazing food and entertainment. I def enjoy your food tour from start to finish. Highway in has great Hawaiian food, especially their haupia pancakes. It's heaven and must try!
I came across your vlog and you reviewed "Poke on Da Run"; best poke nachos ever - a real hidden gem!! Even their daily lunch specials are delicious too.
My bf and I tried a few spots you recommended and we are soooooo happy we did! Best banh mi ever! Seven brothers was DA BOMB and currently eating KJS furikake chicken.. Last day here for us here in Oahu. Going to miss this type of food back on the mainland(Chicago) Thanks for your videos!!!
Thanks Diana for sharing!! I'm glad you and your bf checked out the places I recommended. My favorite Banh Mi ever is from Cuu Long! Have a safe trip home to Chicago. Stay warm! Aloha💯🤙

Mahalo Fattymoko!! Glad you support this channel and there's a cpl good food vloggers here in Hawaii too. Hope you get to try most of these places. Respect back! Aloha👍🤙💯
Huge fan of the traditional Loco Moko but hear me out….. I think it would be an awesome occasional change to replace the rice with some very crispy home fries heavy on the gravy……
Thank you Sean! Just back from Hawaii, it's amazing!!!! And try so many food you've recommended in those video, thank you so much~ BTW, Pit Stop Tacos Burgers & Sliders is super! Highly recommended~@@SeanKaleponi

@@SeanKaleponi actually looking. Back, it’s old school ypo botz from tha early 90’s. Scrap all the time, few losses. Big time Ohana. Still hoale, but love my place.
Another stressful day, another Sean Kaleponi for relaxation :) so detailed. Wish my staff can pay the level of attention to detail as you do with your food. (oh no, I am talking about my work) That furikake chicken looks great! In the poke nachos, do they make their own nachos? We have tried Loco Moco at Rainbow and we did not like it. We like the ones at Liliha Bakery. I have to try Bob's BBQ next time since you strongly recommend :) Where can I get the best Mochi Donuts besides Liliha Bakery? Back to the grind!
Aloha Min C! I'm glad these videos help out your stressful day!): And if my first job was food, I'll pay more attention than my current job. Lol. But I get what you mean. There's no more Bob's anymore but I really like Ted's Bakery Loco Moco. And Mochi Donuts, Kamehameha Bakery in City Square has some good ones!!:):) Mahalo for always supporting our channel!!:):)😋🤙💯
Thank you so much for your recommendations! We went to 6 of them and were not disappointed!! Only bad part is we ran out of time to go to the rest!! Mahalo 🤙
Aloha Ricardo!! Awww Mahako for watching the video and supporting local. 6 of the places is still a lot. Maybe next go around, you can try the others🤙😋👍
Gonna tell my wife that one. Hawaiian Power Bar! I like it:) and can't go wrong with the Poke here!! Please do visit these places and let me know what you think. Aloha🤙

@@SeanKaleponi Thank you for your response! Got it when I woke up this morning. I live about 1km from Wat Thmei Killing Field. Horrible time. I've also walked to Angkor Wat just prior to sunset from my apartment. (It's free for foreigners to enter the grounds after 5:30!) Amazing place.
Me and my wife are here right now getting the furikake chicken and fried chicken. Ppl are nice even after I butchered the name Furikake. This place is amazing. Thank you Sean!
Howzit Brahdah I see you pushing yourself to do great things. Amene just keep posting those great food eats. Wish you showed McDonald's Breakfast platters so mainland McDonalds can step their game up.
Whatsup Paulo!!! How's it going? Are you still at Kaiser? Thanks for your support. I appreciate it!! In the future I would like to do a McDonald’s and 7-11 one so I can compare to other states and countries. Good to hear from you! Aloha!🤙💯

I love the poke nacho trend. So good especially from the food truck. Love all the foods. Yum 😋 When food is life right!?!
Food can def be life for me! Lol And yeah, the whole Poke Nacho trend was new to me. Really cool and delicious. Aloha!🤙💯

You and me both! Filing so good😋🤙
Came to Oahu last night, this was our first stop! Thank you for the tip! Sooo good!!!
Mahalo Rachel for watching. Glad you enjoyed the food! Aloha🤙
Another stressful day, another Sean Kaleponi for relaxation :) so detailed. Wish my staff can pay the level of attention to detail as you do with your food. (oh no, I am talking about my work) That furikake chicken looks great! In the poke nachos, do they make their own nachos? We have tried Loco Moco at Rainbow and we did not like it. We like the ones at Liliha Bakery. I have to try Bob's BBQ next time since you strongly recommend :) Where can I get the best Mochi Donuts besides Liliha Bakery? Back to the grind!
Aloha Min C! I'm glad these videos help out your stressful day!): And if my first job was food, I'll pay more attention than my current job. Lol. But I get what you mean. There's no more Bob's anymore but I really like Ted's Bakery Loco Moco. And Mochi Donuts, Kamehameha Bakery in City Square has some good ones!!:):) Mahalo for always supporting our channel!!:):)😋🤙💯
And not sure about the Nachos but I'm sure Poke on Da Run does everything from scratch. Soo good😋🤙
@@SeanKaleponiThat is so cool. Will be there next time definitely. Thanks Sean

Looks so good and brings back good memories of food and life on Oahu. Best wishes from Cambodia.
I love Cambodia. Been to Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. Angkor Wat Temple and the Killing Fields was life changing for me. Aloha!🤙💯
@@SeanKaleponi Thank you for your response! Got it when I woke up this morning. I live about 1km from Wat Thmei Killing Field. Horrible time. I've also walked to Angkor Wat just prior to sunset from my apartment. (It's free for foreigners to enter the grounds after 5:30!) Amazing place.
Me and my wife are here right now getting the furikake chicken and fried chicken. Ppl are nice even after I butchered the name Furikake. This place is amazing. Thank you Sean!
